Sam is a great real estate agent; he could sell an igloo! Sam sold one of our properties and got better than top dollar. We are very impressed with Sam because he is on top of things, and always takes action. If Sam can't get you top dollar for your home, then nobody can.

Sam is unbelievable! It's ridiculous as I'm at loss of words. The buyers never turned their option period, and Sam was quick to catch that and inform all parties that the buyers are locked in! This saved us from inspections and any further negotiations. We closed our house thanks to Sam and his whole team who took care of us with their 5-star service, at TOP DOLLAR!! His confidence and knowledge made us feel more than comfortable, and this was vital as the thoughts of selling our house before Sam was stressful. If you're thinking about selling, no other Realtor can compare to Sam. Trust me, we interviewed several. You'll get an honest, and extremely extroverted animal (closer) who isn't afraid to negotiate in all means to get you the best deal! Sam also got us in our new home with an unbelievable deal! He's hilarious, genuine and most importantly, a professional! We miss Sam!

Sam Sheikh has been nothing less than exceptional. He has exceeded my expectations as well as went out of his way to give me the very best service and experience as a customer. I did not expect things to go as well as they did. Night and day, Sam and his team were there to assist me in any way. I cannot express the gratitude Sam and his team have given me during my time, and it has been worth every minute of it. I would and will recommend him to all of my friends if they are looking for a Realtor. No matter how hard things may be, Sam will make sure that everything goes well at the end of the day. I had an amazing experience! Sam, thank you form the bottom of my heart!

From the first conversation, it was evident that Sam was knowledgeable, dedicated, and committed. It was clear that he was available and ready to work with us to find a home that most resonates with our family because within a few listings, a few showings, and a few conversations, we found the home we were looking for. Sam navigated through time and space quickly and efficiently, all at the same time offer smooth transitions. He presented ideas with clarity and focus, always keeping my family's stated desires in the forefront. Sam's network of associates is top notch. Working with the lender proved to be amazing as well (truly the best lender I have worked with). Sam's timeliness, availability, and analytic knowledge allowed us to put forth a great offer, with very little back and forth with the seller's agent. All the logistics flowed effortlessly (inspection, working with the title company, pre-closing docs, lender back and forth, asks of the seller, and so on). Sam excels at communication. Through brief phone calls, timely emails, text messages, and appointments. Timeline and momentum are always preserved, with little to no loss of clarity and purpose. Sam was overall exceptional!

I've bought many properties in my life, and no agent has ever negotiated lenders with the builder, but Sam did. Sam didn't care about the other side, he represented us wholeheartedly, and it stood out! He sold our house in the days he promised and well above the price we requested! Then Sam found our forever home negotiating a deal no other Realtor could do, and I know that. He seriously goes the extra mile on everything he does (even on the small things). When you put the whole experience with Sam on a transaction together: you can't really describe it! It's just unreal. He's Sam the Real Estate Man!

Our family is highly impressed with Sam. He provided professionalism without pressuring us. He was knowledgeable and patient. In one day he showed us approximately six properties! He stayed with us and helped us find our dream home! Though the transaction had bumps, he helped us feel comfortable and safe with him on our side. We have already recommended him to family and friends!

Sam Sheikh came highly recommended to us by close friends when we were looking for a Realtor to sell our house. My husband and I actually interviewed four other Realtors before we met Sam, and once we met him, we instantly knew he had the go-getter personality we were looking for in a Realtor. We knew we needed to find someone who was hardworking and reliable, but Sam amazed us on how far he went out of his way to make this sale happen. He is very attentive and understood our wants and demands for our house. It was our first home selling experience, and if it wasn't for Sam, we think we would have been extremely stressed out. He kept us calm and assured us that the house would sell, and it did within three months. We were competing with new builds around us which made our house harder to sell since we were competing with the builder's prices. Sam the Man, never let us down, he went out of his way to market our house, he did multiple open houses and even managed to do a community open house with the other Realtors to get more people to walk through. We appreciate all his efforts and hard work in making our home selling experience as painless as possible. He and his team were on top of every item that needed to be done in order to sell our house from the professional photographer to walking us through the process of signing off our house; they made us feel like they were apart of our family and took care of all our needs. We highly recommend Sam Sheikh as your Realtor for your next home buying/selling needs! He won't let you down!

Sam has performed above and beyond. His exemplary and personalized service by far went past our expectations. He made us feel like million dollar clients at all times. Sam can work under pressure and always attacks problems with a positive attitude. I haven’t seen or talked to any other agents in Realty Austin, but I am sure that Sam has to be up in the rankings with his great people skills and his knowledge of the real estate market. If he is not top ranked, I am sure he will be there soon. I have no problem passing his name and Realty Austin to everyone I know. Sam treated as if we were his family. Once again thanks, Sam and Realty Austin for the great service.

Sam did a great job! I truly believe he went above and beyond for us, and I have been raving about him to all of my co-workers as well.

Sam was always there for us and always had our back throughout the transaction. He made it happen as he said he would! It's clear to me that Sam isn't your average Realtor, in fact, he's not an average person either. Sam is an amazing individual and words can not describe how amazing he is. He looked out for my bottom dollar and achieved to get us a deal that I still can't believe!! We are very happy with the service Sam and his team provided and very happy that he found our dream home!

Sam was fantastic, and it was awesome working with him. He had great negotiating skills and was willing to do what it takes to get us the perfect house. If it weren't for him, we would not have found such a sweet deal on our house. He was really responsive to all our needs and helped us in every step of the process. He got us out of a contract with a homebuilder that clearly, we were about to overpay for. I am so glad we terminated that contract with the homebuilder and got another place instead! He really listened to us regarding what we wanted and did an awesome job in finding our dream house. He works for his clients and was not happy until we were.

Sam Sheikh has been an awesome Realtor. He has truly exceeded all of our expectations with our first meeting to sell our house (explaining every step of the process to us and ensuring we understood everything clearly). He is a true Realtor at heart and has always gone out of his way to meet our expectations without any further questions asked. We have truly enjoyed his time and his patience with us. It also helped that he knew how VA loan(s) work and we didn't have to do anything but sit back and relax. There are many Realtors out there but, Sam is special. I wish there were more like him! I truly know that we will keep him in mind and would highly recommend him to anyone who is selling a house on the market. Once again, "Sam is truly the MAN"!!!!

I cannot elaborate enough how great Sam is. I have a lot of connections, and after working with Sam, I immediately let my network of contacts know...Sam is soon to be the top realtor in the central Texas area. He not only sold our home in 4 days but was in constant contact with us (email, text, etc.) at all hours of the day/night. This was my first time working with Sam, and it's been a wonderful pleasure. We've had past realtors who are focused on the 3% outcome, and you can tell. With Sam, it was customer first and no fake personality, he was real and authentic. Sam is as real and truthful as it can get when it comes to a Realtor. We trusted him 100% and hope he is recognized as a top realtor in Austin. I will continue to be vocal for Sam with my network and anyone I meet. Realty Austin is VERY lucky to have a top agent...Sam was made for this, and you can tell when he speaks, a very intelligent and a respectable individual.

I have to tell you that Sam was awesome!! He was very professional and very positive from the moment we met him to the end of the house sale and is still following up with us to make sure that we have received our funds. I have nothing but great things to say about Sam. He exceeded our expectations. I will certainly be calling him as soon as we are ready to purchase another house. I have been telling all my friends & family about our great experience selling our house. If it was not for Sam & his team, I don’t think that it would have gone as smooth as it did!!

Maryann Marcum

We LOVE Sam!❤ He excelled in what we needed the most: Delivery. He delivered price, impossible neighborhood, and most importantly timing! We have a beautiful home thanks to this wonderful negotiating machine as well as a new lifelong friend. He even FaceTimed our house tour while we were celebrating my birthday out of town. We literally chose our house from the Hard Rock Cafe on the Riverwalk while drinking a daiquiri. The entire process was seamless. He literally did everything from final walkthroughs to guaranteed home warranty paid by the seller. This professional is simply amazing and we can't thank him enough!! We love our beautiful, new home.

Jessica & Nathan Barlow

You will never meet another realtor like Sam. He goes above and beyond to get the job done. The house Sam helped me sell was built in 1985 and needed some work. I had talked to other realtors and they wanted to list it for around $80,000 less than Sam did. He sold it in one day getting asking price. I highly recommend Sam to anyone thinking about selling their house. It will be the best decision of your life.

Rhonda Aubin

Sam the real estate man made my home buying process very smooth and stress-free. He was able to find my dream home and at the same time saving me thousands of dollars. His negotiation skills are out of this world. I've never come across a realtor who is as much fun as he is. It was a blast working with him. He is one of the funniest guys you'll ever meet. He is a realtor you can trust. Sam Sam the real estate man is the best!

Nathan Smith

Like they all say, SAM is the Realtor MAN! I was a first time home buyer in June of 2016 when Sam found my new home in Cedar Park. Being a first time home buyer there were countless questions, concerns, and confusion racing through my mind. However Sam was able to thoroughly explain each and every detail, aspect, and contractual language confusion I had by breaking down everything into simple terms I could easily understand. Sam was also an excellent negotiator with my newly built! Most people assume there is little to no room for negotiating with a new build, HOWEVER working with Sam it was not the case! He was able to sweeten the deal, negotiating HOA's, kitchen appliances, new home upgrades, and above all a PRICE REDUCTION! I was also blown away by Sam's experience in the housing construction industry, by his examination of the hardwood floors in a new built. I felt safe, comfortable, and at ease working with Sam throughout the entire home buying process. The best quality Sam has, he never adds pressure or tension into a situation, his cool and calm demeanor was awesome!!! I have referred Sam to my colleagues, friends, and my family and would also recommend him for any real estate transaction!

Kash Majeed

Until I hired Sam, my house sat on the market for six months with another realtor. Sam sold it in a week! Working with him was an enjoyable and stress-free experience. He's passionate about helping YOU sell your property. 110% responsive and proactive. You won't find a better seller's agent!

Charlie Mitchell

Sam is your top realtor of choice! He is there to assist you in getting top dollar for your house and making the prep work, selling, and closing process as profitable and smooth for you as possible. I was in another state and Sam took care of all details and sold my house in 2 weeks in a slow market time. In signing the paperwork I had full trust his team had dotted all the "i's" and crossed all the "t's". He went above and beyond to make sure the entire process was smooth and profitable. Choose Sam!

Sam is very knowledgeable of the neighborhood, area, and went the extra mile to help get everything handled as easily as possible. He was available almost any time to deal with any questions or concerns, and was willing to help with anything (including helping pack and move). He was very down to earth, and again, easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking to sell.

Kevin Arnold

Sam goes above and beyond to accommodate his clients! He is flexible on meeting times and locations, is very responsive to questions and works tirelessly to get your home sold at the best offer possible. I highly recommend Sam as your Realtor.

Leann Seibert

I'd give Sam 10 stars if I could. While other agents not only evaluated my house at a much lower price but also had long to-do lists of minor repairs, and remodeling before selling. Sam is truly the Real Estate Man, hands-down! He was nearly 30k higher on my home value than most agents and sold my house in less than 2 days without me having me do anything. Sam clearly knows the market better than anyone! He told me to relax, kick-back, watch, and enjoy the show! It was an unbelievable experience. He's passionate about netting his sellers the most. I highly recommend Sam and his team to take care of your Real Estate needs!

Adam & Marilyn Watkins

Sam sold our house in less than 2 weeks netting us a sizeable profit. He is very professional, always available to resolve any concerns or questions and most of all very passionate for the industry. His strategic pricing model and team staging will get the buyers interested within hours of the listing. My wife and I definitely recommend his service, negotiation skills and knowledge of the industry. Sam the Real Estate Man will definitely net you the most and make the process seamless.

Ladd & Sheila Rawls

Sam was on it from the get-go, he kept me informed on everything that was going on and was very professional about it.

Louie Gonzales

Future clients of Sam should have complete confidence in any real estate transactions he is involved in. Would have given Sam six stars if it possible.

Betsey & David Johnson

I'm speechless! Literally! There is no way to describe my feeling of satisfaction after the closing of my house thanks to Sam! He sold it in less than 5 days, thousands above anticipation; 30k more than what most Realtors quoted me!! I interviewed 4 Realtors and heard a lot of sales pitches but when Sam was recommended by a friend - I finally found someone honest, with integrity, and most importantly, his concern and highest priority to net me the most! He's a different animal! Emotions aside, it's strictly business for him and in this business, a closer is exactly what you need when selling a house! I've used a lot of Realtors in the past but no one compared to Sam! His level of professionalism is very rare! Find out for yourself!

Andrew Brown

I give Sam my highest recommendations when selling a house. Professional, detail oriented and kept us up-to-date through the whole process with Email, texts and phone calls, sometimes just to check if we had any questions. Sam genuinely cares for clients and works tirelessly to get your house sold for maximum value. He is truly a "neighborhood specialist", our house was on the market less than 24 hours before it was sold. He explained everything, answering all our questions so we clearly understood every aspect, going above and beyond. I will recommend Sam to anyone looking for a professional, "get it done", looking out for YOUR interest’s realtor.

Don & Regina Smith

Highly recommend Sam! He sold my home in 1 day for top dollar where homes in my neighborhood sit on the market for longer periods! He is a very savvy negotiator! His marketing team did a great job! Thanks, Sam!
